PSHNE camera show April 30/May 1 in Wakefield MA

PHSNE - Photographic Historical Society of New England, holds regular meetings and have two shows each year to buy cameras, lenses, parts, and stuff. While being so close to Waltham and Cambridge, the epicenter of all things Polaroid and the history related thereto, PHSNE members seem to have even more of an interest in very early cameras, processes and gear. You never know what you will find. If you need medium format bodies and lenses, this seems to be the place to go. All the wedding photographers have switched over to full frame Canon and Nikon digis, so the Bronicas, Mamiyas and Hasselblads are ever more numerous. The PSHNE show is also a great place to pick up a funky 120 rollfilm camera that you've never heard of for almost nothing. What fun!
